Stunner of a 4k disc
on August 14, 2020
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
Best looking image for this movie ever. I was impressed with the film in its initial theater run at a premier movie house in Philly in 1968. This 4k disc even tops what I remember seeing in a theater when I saw it again back in the 1970's. I've had VHS, Laser disc, DVD, and Bluray versions of this movie over the years and this new edition has the chops to stun anyone. The mastering of the image and sound belies its 1968 vintage.

The 9th film from Quentin Tarantino is a seriocomic mix of fact and fiction set in 1969 Los Angeles. As the sun prepares to set on Hollywood's Golden Age, fading TV star Rick Dalton (Leonardo DiCaprio) attempts to revive his career, and he and longtime stunt double and pal Cliff Booth (Brad Pitt) find themselves crossing paths with actress Sharon Tate (Margot Robbie) and several members of the Manson Family. With Emile Hirsch, Dakota Fanning, Bruce Dern, Al Pacino, and Kurt Russell. 161 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English. Two-disc set.

The Best Since Pulp Fiction

Verified Purchase:Yes
My 2nd fav Tarentino movie that just squeaks a notch above Inglurious Bast***s and Django Unchained. Pacing, direction, acting, costumes, dialogue and twisted history all have the typical Tarentino trademarks.

More of the Same but Enjoyable
on July 17, 2020
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
Arnold reprises the role he was born to play, this time with fewer twists and some well placed homage to prior outings. The two leads are good but nothing noteworthy (Danes is MUCH BETTER in Homeland but that's a role that has more challenges). Stahl walks through his part like a dress rehearsal. Nonetheless, I found it enjoyable for its SFX and volume factor.

Good for Repeat Viewings

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is an entertaining flick with Cruise in a subordinate role to Blunt's character, who gives much to enjoy in this sci-fi "jumper." Not to repeat myself (sic) but this one has a good repeat factor.

About 85% accurate and true to most of the characters who populate it, this film carries enough heartfelt bravery and action to satisfy most.

Stylized Violence

Verified Purchase:Yes
Mainly for Frank Miller admirers, these films give pause to some who look for historical accuracy in Hollywood efforts. But many won't be disappointed who appreciate images that come right off the graphic novels' pages.

Not the Best of the Bonds but....

Kind of formulaic in its unfolding and not the best of the Craig Bond movies but certainly it has all the action thrills necessary to give one an enjoyable time.

Marvel Woman

Brie Larson delivers a credible performance in this less than great but nonetheless entertaining entry in the Marvel canon that establishes another plot line for our super heroes to help foil Thanos' plans.

Fred's Review Comments
 
It's the year 2029, and much of the world's mutant population has succumbed to a genocidal, man-made virus. As a down-and-out Logan (Hugh Jackman, in his final appearance as the character) comes to terms with his failing healing factor, he and an ailing Charles Xavier (Patrick Stewart) must protect Laura (Dafne Keen)-a young genetically bred mutant with powers similar to Logan's-from the evil organization that created her. With Richard E. Grant, Boyd Holbrook, Stephen Merchant.

ONE OF THE BEST COMIC BOOK MOVIES OF ALL TIME
By Fred
Great movie and to me, one of the best in the XMen franchise. Awesome final outing for Hugh Jackman as Wolverine and Patrick Stewart at Professor X. Great story and acting. Highly recommend.

Seems to Have Lost its Blue Teeth!
By Fred
Purchased several weeks ago. Stopped working this morning. No amount of Bluetooth pairing, connecting, reconnecting, rebooting, reinstalling can solve it. Keep getting message to try reconnecting. Now outside return period. Will go to Logitech website for support on manufacturer 1 year warranty.

Will using a fiber optic HDMI cable eliminate my handshake issues? It takes about 10 seconds for an Image to appear with a 35' HDMI active cable. Will a fiber optic cable be worthwhile? If so, how long might the handshake take to produce an image?
